Didn't even know this was on, it's all go in the Premier League!
Shame that it's not on Sky, would be nice to not hear Pearson banging on about fast track riders although I'm sure that he'd force it in somewhere!

The original staging was on Sky, mind you the fall out after the way it was postponed might just have put them off showing it.

THE field may be watered down, but Peter Kildemand is still pleased to be able to represent Swindon in the Elite League Riders Championship tonight.
The Dane will be in Swindon colours along with skipper Troy Batchelor and Dakota North in King’s Lynn tonight, but the likes of Tai Woffinden, Niels-Kristian Iversen and Darcy Ward will all be missing due to injuries and Ward's suspension.
Traditionally there are also a number of line-up changes in the hours leading up to the meeting, but Kildemand is keen to push for the title tonight regardless of the field he faces.
“It’s been a good meeting the last couple of years I’ve been in it so why not do it again,” he said.
“There are a few riders injured right now so it will be a bit weaker than it maybe should be but I’m sure I will enjoy it.
“Hopefully I can get through it without crashing or without any engine trouble and I’m going there to win.”
Batchelor is a former Lynn rider and believes the track at the Norfolk Arena will suit the event, which he is aiming to win.
“King’s Lynn is a track I know well, and I always enjoy going there. It’s a big fast track with plenty of lines so it’s always good fun to ride,” he told Speedway GB.
“Hopefully I have some speed on the night and make some starts. It’s one of those where anything can happen, but with a bit of luck I feel like I can do well. I’ve had some good meetings the last couple of weeks, so I’m going in feeling confident.”
ELRC LINE-UP (subject to change): 1 Bjarne Pedersen (Eastbourne), 2 Davey Watt (Lakeside), 3 Matej Zagar (Belle Vue), 4 Maciej Janowski (Poole), 5 Chris Harris (Coventry), 6 Vaclav Milik (Poole), 7 Richard Lawson (Lakeside), 8 Hans Andersen (Coventry), 9 Peter Kildemand (Swindon), 10 Dakota North (Swindon), 11 Rory Schlein (King’s Lynn), 12 Jacob Thorssell (Wolverhampton), 13 Jason Doyle (Leicester), 14 Danny King (Birmingham), 15 Troy Batchelor (Swindon), 16 Robert Lambert (King’s Lynn).

Week night, weak field, over priced in an obscure location: not a lot going for it really. Now if that had been at the more central and accessible, more exciting, much nicer EoES then at least it would have a chance of attracting more people?
